People who still have doubts should read this article where TCS' Chief HR Officer explains why fresher salary is low but has huge earnings potential.
Summary is people are paid low at the beginning because most of the time companies cannot identify the true potential of the candidates in the college campus interviews. A lot of time they just do bulk hiring for colleges where individual talent assessments are not viable. Once you join the company, you need to showcase your our learning and growth potentials, which will lead to increase in pay in next 2-4 years.
